Description

Tales From the Crypt #31 Gaines File pedigree 9/12 (EC, 1952)
CGC NM 9.4 Off-white pages. This issue features the first
artwork Al Williamson did for EC (though another story was
published first). The immensely talented Williamson quickly took
his place among the company's regulars, and speaking of the EC
staff, Bill Gaines and crew make an almost Mad-like
appearance in a humorous tale drawn by Jack Kamen (and starring
Kamen as the main character!). The issue also features the artwork
of Jack Davis and Graham Ingels. Images from the issue were used in
the book Parade of Pleasure. Only four copies of this issue
have been certified with higher grades by CGc to date. Overstreet
2004 NM- 9.2 value = $625.
